Pours a pale gold with significant haze. Aroma is sweet malt, some strawberry esters, and some peper notes form the yeast. Peppercorns are not apparent in the aroma. Flavor is a sweet tripel with a little too much fusels, but an interesting complexity from the green peppercorns. Aftertaste has nice peppercorn character, but the fusels come through again. I split this bottle, and I’m glad I did, it tasted real good, but I think much more would give me a headache from the fusels.

Bottle. Pours hazy, dark gold with thin fizzy white head; short retention and ni lacing. Aroma is caramel and cereal malt, herbs, black pepper, oranges, yeast, and floral hops. Flavor is malt forward with supporting fruit esters and faint hops; crisp finish. Medium body, carbonation, and warmth.

Bottle at Brewer’s Art. Pours hazy orange with a small, fizzy white head, short retention with spare lacing. Aroma is Candi sugar, straw and meal malt, spices and fruity esters. Flavor is malt forward with spices, pepper, light hops and bitterness, fruity esters, Belgian yeast and a dry finish. Medium to full body, medium warmth and carbonation.

Appearance: deep honeyed gold with a thick white head quickly shrinking to minimal lace. Aroma: pears, peaches, honey, grain, and pepper. Taste: muddled pears in light syrup, yeast, freshly cracked pepper, honey, lemon, tangerine, with a hint of club crackers. Finish: slick, a bit a sweet, with lingering notes of yeast, pears, and pepper. Notes: This was a very thick beer. The palate was extremely slick, almost fatty. It felt like I’d just had a really greasy sausage. The flavors were nice, and the alcohol was decently hidden, but the palate was just too rich.

bought by Dave .. . Pours a hazy sunset gold .. tons of foam, sticky lacing .. . light pepper, honey, lemon zest, light yeast, and pear skin .. . medium aggressive mouth .. . good tripel! .. . . I think there should be something in science called the "reindeer effect." I don’t know what it would be, but I think it’d be good to hear someone say, "Gentlemen, what we have here is a terrifying example of the reindeer effect.

750 ml, had the regular tripel last night from these guys, a little thick but here it holds up to the peppercorns. The peppercorns add great aroma and a cool spicey element to the beer. Tasty
